Nfl playoffs (and super bowl predictions)

List the teams then? Yes teams had bounties, but not as outrageous as that in the modern era. Most had a "I'll give you $5,000 a piece if you keep Adrian Peterson below 100 yards." Not a "I'll give you $5,000 if you knock out the quarterback."

I gave you a big hint in the last post, but clearly your ability to comprehend is impaired. This wasn’t new, but it was clearly the first time you heard about it. The NFL has some stupid scandal every offseason just to keep people tuned in. This was that seasons scandal. Deflatgate, Ray Rice, Zeke, Kaep.... always same BS.

Are you that naive? All teams did this shit for years and no one cared. Septein..... get a clue.

Now politics and pussy hats are part of the NFL too.

Not as much as New Orleans is at the moment. Whatever, people forget they won their only Super Bowl by having to use a Bounty system and got caught.

I get the feeling you'd give a damn if the rams were on the receiving end of that screwjob.

I don't give a damn. Should've blown us out when you had the chance in the 1st quarter.

Yeah that is true...they should have put it away early...but regardless B.S call...but who cares Cowboys get this yearly.

The only thing I can think of that might convince me to watch any of this Super Bowl would be a impromptu Festivus celebration during halftime, featuring Sean Payton and Sean McVay both performing the feats of strength along with the airing of grievances by Payton.

Fixed.

I cant wait to watch this cluster fuck game....the refs will be the ones to determine it once again. It's Boston vs LA again (like MLB World Series)

I digged the reffing on the Rams/saints game. It felt more like old school football before all the gay rules.

In the what goes around category, Dallas was the beneficiary of two consecutive 3rd down defensive PI calls against Seattle, which resulted in a Cowboys TD. One might have been legit, but not both. Inept refs have pretty much ruined many games.

One other oddity noted during the playoffs yesterday, why has singing of the National Anthem and the players reactions now been deemed worthy of being televised by the NFL, but was not during the regular season?

In that same game, Seattle about ripped Dak's head off and their receivers were pushing off all night. It was poorly officiated all the way around, but nothing like that no call.

Did they get fucked, yes. But they had 70 minutes, at home, 13-0 lead, first to have the ball in OT and throwing the ball when they should have ran it 3 times in a row and made them use their time outs. The Rams would have had to go score with only 40 seconds and the 12th man going crazy.

By the time you reach the championship game, the NFL teams are so close in skill level that a single play can decide the game, so you can't really say the saints blew it.

There are missed calls all the time, hell it happened to Dallas when the Rams beat us, you can argue that it's easy to miss down on the field. That PI call wasn't even close, there is no defense for that, it was a blatant screw job. They want the rams in the SB, plain and simple.

There is no "bad reffing"... there are a thousand cameras covering every angle of every play. The NFL allows "bad reffing" to influence the outcome of the game. Not just who wins, but over/under, points per quarter, etc. Gambling is so intertwined with the NFL. I can't believe people still watch this crap.
